Abomination Creates Questions About Whether DPMS and Armalite Uppers and Lowers Can Be Made To Work Together

[BigNate]

This picture showed up in a different forum and my GUESS is that the person bought a DPMS style lower and Armalite style upper and decided to just "make it work..."   It led to a few questions...
First - not saying I would do this... In fact - I wouldn't... I'd sell one part or the other and buy one that matches.   However - if we pretend that we are living in "Book of Eli" times and I stumble on the two parts - CAN I make it work? 
1) If you remove the interference material in that area will takedown pins line up?   Will the hammer to pin geometry work? 
2) Would it not be better to remove material from the back of the upper than it would be to remove material from the lower?

Wow just wow

Be interesting to see the match up between the upper and lower. At least use a file so both sides are sort of even. 

I guess if I was living "Book of Eli" it would make more sense to split the difference and remove material from both half thus keeping as much material on each part.

They cut the shiit out of an AR-10 type lower, to make a DPMS type upper fit.  That's just pure ignorance.  My $0.02.

Doesn’t make any sense.

At some point in that demolition a light bulb dimmed forever, and the word DOH! was uttered!

Some stuff just can't be explained in a rational manner. I just don't understand some of you humans.
